  2. Domain of a function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domain_of_a_function

    The term domain is also commonly used in a different sense in mathematical analysis: a domain is a non-empty connected open set in a topological space. In particular, in real and complex analysis , a domain is a non-empty connected open subset of the real coordinate space R n {\displaystyle \mathbb {R} ^{n}} or the complex coordinate space C n ...

  3. Green's function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Green's_function

    In other words, the solution of equation 2, u(x), can be determined by the integration given in equation 3. Although f ( x ) is known, this integration cannot be performed unless G is also known. The problem now lies in finding the Green's function G that satisfies equation 1 .

  4. Cubic function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cubic_function

    In mathematics, a cubic function is a function of the form () = + + +, that is, a polynomial function of degree three. In many texts, the coefficients a , b , c , and d are supposed to be real numbers , and the function is considered as a real function that maps real numbers to real numbers or as a complex function that maps complex numbers to ...

  5. Cauchy–Riemann equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cauchy–Riemann_equations

    In this form, the Cauchy–Riemann equations can be interpreted as the statement that a complex function of a complex variable is independent of the variable ¯. As such, we can view analytic functions as true functions of one complex variable ( z {\textstyle z} ) instead of complex functions of two real variables ( x {\textstyle x} and y ...

  6. Newton's method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton's_method

    If f has an incomplete domain, it is possible for Newton's method to send the iterates outside of the domain, so that it is impossible to continue the iteration. [19] For example, the natural logarithm function f ( x ) = ln x has a root at 1, and is defined only for positive x .

  7. Rational function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rational_function

    The domain of f is the set of complex numbers such that (). Every rational function can be naturally extended to a function whose domain and range are the whole Riemann sphere (complex projective line). A complex rational function with degree one is a Möbius transformation.

  8. Method of characteristics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Method_of_characteristics

    Typically, it applies to first-order equations, though in general characteristic curves can also be found for hyperbolic and parabolic partial differential equation. The method is to reduce a partial differential equation (PDE) to a family of ordinary differential equations (ODE) along which the solution can be integrated from some initial data ...

    Plot of normalized ⁡ function (i.e. ⁡ ()) with its spectral frequency components.. The unitary Fourier transforms of the rectangular function are [2] ⁡ = ⁡ = ⁡ (), using ordinary frequency f, where is the normalized form [10] of the sinc function and ⁡ = ⁡ (/) / = ⁡ (/), using angular frequency , where is the unnormalized form of the sinc function.
